I just ran into one of the mechanics from the place my bus is at. they had to fill the secondary fuel filter 3 times just to get it in the building. He says the fuel pump is bad he thinks. What's that gonna cost me you think? |

I think they will get all the money they can out of you.
Could be as simple as a bad check valve or a air leak.
Mine would lose it prim when I 1st bought it but after a 400 mile drive it never did it any more.

sounds like you have a line or fitting that is allowing air in the system.... if the engine is running, the fuel transfer pump works!!!!!.... unless it leaks!!!....look for leaks!!!!or just give your money away... |

The fuel pump was bad $59.00. only 14 pounds pressure reved up 0 at idle. got new compressor on and governor. tomorrow going to see if we can get alternator charging. If it will then I will try to get the loud noise taken care of. if not I'll go another route. |

Point Deisel in Plover Wi. The owner himself is getting greasy cause he's the only one there thats ever seen a 8V71 let olone worked on one.
$60.00 an hour. Getting ready for the much anticipated trip back to Florida. This cold, Dry weather is hell on my throat.
I'm the one playing guitar, the chicks are just a figment of my over active imagination. |
